Why Choose Exact Marketing Solutions
Most agencies treat AI visibility as a feature bolted onto SEO. We built the whole practice around it — the audit and the copy that closes the gap, from the same strategist.
One Strategist, Diagnosis to Fix
Most SEO firms added an “AI visibility” line item to an existing service menu once the shift became impossible to ignore — the audit is generic, the fix is whatever a copywriter who didn’t run the audit produces next. Monitoring-only tools sit on the opposite end: they’ll tell you whether you’re cited, accurately, and then stop — no attached strategist, no fix, no explanation of which differentiator would actually move the needle for your specific business type.
Exact Marketing Solutions is built around a narrower combination: the person who runs your 9-Factor Audit is the same person who writes the copy that closes what it finds. A monitoring tool can tell you a business isn’t cited. It can’t decide which differentiator to lead with, which factor to fix first, or write the page that earns the citation back — that’s a judgment call, not a report.
Katherine Patchett, Founder
Exact Marketing Solutions is founder-led, not agency-assembled — the strategist who built the methodology is the one applying it to your business.
- TEFL-certified Business English tutor turned AIO consultant — the discipline started in technical, precision-focused English instruction before it became an AI-visibility practice; the same eye for exact language carries into copy built to be read by a machine and a person at once.
- AWAI AIO Intensive, 2nd cohort — trained early in the specific discipline of AI-optimized copywriting, ahead of the field, not retrofitting SEO skills onto a new acronym.
- Solo Agency Intensive with Nick Usborne, first live cohort — built the agency’s operating model in the intensive’s first live run, not from a course, from active practice.
- Keynote speaker on AI optimization and human-AI collaboration — the same argument this site makes about audits and copy, made in person, in front of an audience that can push back.
- Filmmaker — a 5-minute short film premiered at the Windsor International Film Festival (WIFF) 2023, a different craft discipline that shares the same underlying standard: precision, structure, and something that holds up in front of a real audience.
Practicing what we preach: Agentic AI is deployed here the way an engineer uses AutoCAD — a precision instrument that amplifies expertise, never a replacement for the judgment behind it.
EMS vs. the Alternatives
Three ways a business typically approaches AI visibility — and where the actual differences are.
| What Matters | Exact Marketing Solutions | SEO-Only Agencies | AI Monitoring Tools |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diagnosis → fix | Same strategist audits and writes the fix | AI visibility bolted on as a line item | Reports the gap, doesn’t fix it |
| Methodology | 9 factors, weighted by your business type | Generic SEO checklist, not citation-specific | One-size-fits-all scoring, if any |
| Who does the work | Human strategist, AI-augmented | Varies, rarely AIO-specialized | Automated-only, no human judgment layer |
| Cadence | Quarterly audit + monthly citation tracking | Project-based, often one-off | One-time snapshot or static dashboard |
Why Choose Us — FAQs
Does paying for Google Ads make AI search engines recommend my business?
No. AI citation and paid search are separate systems — AI models don’t factor ad spend into which businesses they name inside a generated answer. A paid ad can win placement on a results page; it does nothing to make an AI system trust and cite that business inside its own response. Paid visibility and AI-cited visibility have to be earned separately.
Can’t I just use an automated AI tool instead of a strategist?
You can find out whether you’re cited with a tool. What a tool can’t do is decide why — which of the nine factors is actually holding your business back, which differentiator to lead with for your specific business type, or write the copy that closes the gap. Automated tools report status. A strategist diagnoses and prescribes the fix.
Why does timing around major international events matter for local AI visibility?
Large international events compress a year’s worth of unfamiliar-visitor search activity into a few months — delegates, journalists, and attendees who don’t already know your business ask an AI system cold instead of relying on local familiarity. Businesses that establish AI-citation authority before that spike arrives benefit from it; businesses that start once it’s already underway are competing from zero.
Does Exact Marketing Solutions work with businesses outside Serbia?
Yes — Exact Marketing Solutions works with businesses across Serbia, Canada, the United States, the United Arab Emirates, the European Union, and Australia.
